Lyrics

I got to be number one
Gotta be number one
Come on, yeah
Love and politics, sex and sadness
Step by step, all tryna be the baddest
When the storm come, better check your ballast
And pray that the wind blow gust upon your canvas
Reach for the stars, pray not for failure
When you're stuck in the pit with all the other gladiators
Lookin for more meaning, reason to keep living
Climb to the top, 'cause the race needs winning
Wanna be a radiant sun that shines forever through better or worse?
We gotta keep things spinnin'
Fame, recognition, purpose and vision
With a small little snake in your ear cold hissing
Wanna hear the music? Go buy tickets
But kick it on the street for the freaks in the village
Feelin' too green? Soak up the spillage
Who is the number one champion in your village?
(I got to be number one)
Wanna be number one? Gotta beat on your drum like this
(Gotta be number one)
Like that
Close your eyes and imagine how it feels to be like that
(I got to be number one)
Wanna be number one? Gotta beat on your drum like this
(Gotta be number one)
Like that
And the whole world's going along with your act
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Cher!)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Said the world's obsessed with the competition winner
But all that glitters not gold (No!)
The trophy and the cheddar don't define a man's measure
Man, you gotta get it in your soul
And you can heed the pressure, or turn your back
Follow your own path, or follow the pack, brother
Go discover what you love in life
The aim of the game is to love your life
And if daddy don't tolerate losers in the family
You tell him he can stick his sausage in the pantry
If he gets hot headed, then pull a funny face
Kick him in the shins and choke him with a shoelace
Cash athletics, you're comin' last?
Become an academic, give your life to the arts
You'll get more girls and have more fun
And anyway, the mainstream's for suckers and chumps
(I got to be number one)
Wanna be number one? Gotta beat on your drum like this
(Gotta be number one)
Like that
Close your eyes and imagine how it feels to be like that
(I got to be number one)
Wanna be number one? Gotta beat on your drum like this
(Gotta be number one)
Like that
And the whole world's going along with your act
(Yeah)
Everybody now
(Champions!)
Everybody now
(Champions!)
Everybody now
(Champions!)
(I got to be number one)
Wanna be number one? Gotta beat on your drum like this
(Gotta be number one)
Like that
Close your eyes and imagine how it feels to be like that
(I got to be number one)
Wanna be number one? Gotta beat on your drum like this
(Gotta be number one)
Like that
And the whole world's going along with your act
(Yeah)
